i wanna watch that documentary but i know i'm gonna cry.... [Edit]...fuck why did i read any of the comments? i have ruined my deep happy mood.

i have my evening viewing all sorted out now. i am shamed that homophobia seems to have pretty much originated in the country from which i am forced to claim my heritage, and it was spread and disseminated by us as well. what a legacy...

thank you. glad you enjoyed.

i loved that book as a kid. can ye tell?thank you for your words of such high praise

all reviews have punch my friend. all your comments mean so much to me. many many hugs.

thank you, thank you. it's funny what a horse can do.

how lucky can one boy be? relocates, job, horse, university, career, friends...ending up with his first boyfriend would have been too perfect hey?

*blushes* awww, thanks Mickey...

i am your humble author... all this praise makes going into work so much easier. thanks for the review, i love to know that you've enjoyed the inside of my head.

something that more people should remember. no one can deny that Rhyder got his HEA

no plans yet buddy. time will tell

kid deserves to be happy, just not with the first guy he fell in love with.

such high praise for little me. thank you Cole, it means a lot for others to feel the way i feel for these guys.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, next outta the gate…” The announcer had a strong mid-western accent and had no trouble in letting everyone know how he felt about each run. He had cheered and hollered through the speakers just as much as anyone else in the crowd as the events had played out on the big screens, “The first talent from northern California, Jase Mauney! Jase has been doing pretty well this season in the roping and wrestling competitions and he should be putting on a pretty good show for us to

ah yes, i remember. honestly it wasn't something i'd really thought about until a fifteen year old brought it up.

thank you so much. this makes me happy.

Thank you Thorn and Stellar for getting us back on track. I actually had a really weird debate about this at school today. i sort of ended up in an ethics lesson where a kid was discussing that if you were separated at birth from a sibling, or adopted and thus never never your real family, you wouldn't necessarily be recognised by law as being related and this if you met and fell in love with a person from your family and found out later, would this still be classed as incest? there was a rather lively debate and i discovered that top set year 11's are witty little sods.

i am so looking forwards to whatever it is you end up writing.... *giggles with mirthful glee*

Welcome. The muttering annoys me, because i'm a big believer in telling people what i think of them - to their face. i expect people to be the same with me. reading your reply i was reminded of being there when a female friend of mind mention to another very straight female "friend" that she thought there were other women who were hot. it was like the straight girl just couldn't cope with the idea that someone she knew could possibly think this way. it was very surreal. Queen Victoria didn't outlaw lesbianism because she refused to believe that such a thing could exist, and it was a bit like that. Also, bear in mind the "friendly face of homophobia" and i have friends who fall into this category. nice, in principle, tolerant in theory, but when it comes down to either doing/saying something or actually meeting the boyfriend etc offer unthinking bigoted viewpoints. these are the type of people who will say "that's so gay" or "You're such a fag" and yet proclaim to be understanding. just food for thought.

thanks for the extra share guys. i hate how BBC links don't work everywhere.

hey there, you said you wanted constructive reviews, so here goes. i like it, and i like the idea, though the poker stuff at the beginning was a bit off putting, very deep and specific very quickly. my big other thing was that there were a lot of slightly random metaphors and similes in the first 2/3 of the chapter. Stalactite teeth? not attractive, and his shoulders and back being wide as "horns" and then something about a looming bright palm tree??? i nearly gave up there, but it was worth it for the ending. the best thing was definitely the dialogue, witty, chipper, clever. very cool. you leave us with the feeling of knowing several characters we've never actually met or seen, and that is a very good skill. Please, if you think i have been overly critical, please tell me. generally, i liked it, enough to read on when i have time certainly. kudos, keep going. SD

I haven't watched it yet, but this seems like it might be good: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p01fttrl/Stephen_Fry_Out_There_Episode_1/ Stephen Fry (oh holy and wonderful wordsmith) is looking at being gay around the world. it still scares me that for some people, the big bad darklands are still right on the doorstep.

sneering. the sort of general shocked expression when they work out what they've seen, and my least favourite - the unintelligible mutter as they walk away.

but not quite the end my love.and yeah, my husband certainly have to vie with Copper for our affection.

poor kid misses his horse. at least it's time to go home eh?
